With a few million people it doesn’t even need to be a specific bank. It would cause an enormous problem. Especially since we’re used to assets being digital these days. Request enough actual physical cash and it would rapidly reach a breaking point.

It would be one thing if Trump was actually anti-trust…but he isn’t.

He’s anti companies which don’t prostrate themselves in front of him and bow to his whims. They’re bad, terrible, anti American companies. The ones that do are great, wonderful, beautiful companies. The bad ones need to be broken up and given to the big ones.

He’s so transparent it’s painful. If someone says good things about Trump or give him money, they’re good. If they don’t, they’re bad. It’s absurdly obvious.

As long as the demand exists in the market, the niche will be filled. There’s simply too much money to be made.

As a related example:

Mexico has a cartel problem not because their government is weak, but because the scale of the American drug market means every cartel has an annual income that dwarfs any conceivable taxation revenue. Which means they’re better armed, better staffed, better equipped, and overall a more formidable threat than can be dealt with.

Even fully legalizing drugs in the US might not undercut the cartels at this point because their operations have extended so far into legitimate forms of income at this point. Cartels are an agricultural powerhouse, and are responsibility for the vast majority of avocado production for example.

My wife has an iPad and one of the things I hate the most is that you can’t install adblock extensions into Firefox on it like you can on Android. Which is a thing that has made using the browser on the phone wayyyy more enjoyable.
